I have been looking for this info for a while to answer what the drive modes do to all the things they change when you switch them, especially the HTRAC.
Found this 2017 G90 Press Release:
Intelligent Drive Mode Type of Driving:
ECO Fuel Economy
SMART SPORT INDIVIDUAL
Adaptive Dynamic Focus Customized
Each drive mode alters transmission mapping, throttle responsiveness, suspension, steering and stability control, with specific modes adapted to function seamlessly with H-TRAC® AWD for those Genesis so equipped. The "Smart Shift" mode was developed with Genesis proprietary AI technology that detects driving information, analyzes driving patterns and then automatically optimizes the driving mode in real time for a truly adaptive driving experience. The Individual mode is completely customizable by the driver to input the settings that best fit his or her driving style.
H-TRAC® AWD system
An advanced H-TRAC® AWD system is available with either powertrain, for confident control under adverse driving conditions. This system features an electronic transfer case with active torque control and offers dual-mode Sport or Normal calibrations that are linked to the Intelligent Drive Mode. The H-TRAC system can direct up to 40 percent of available torque to the front axle, for enhanced traction in adverse conditions such as ice or snow. In more ideal conditions, the H- TRAC Sport calibration features a high degree of rear-drive bias for sportier cornering and acceleration characteristics, with up to 90 percent of available torque distributed to the rear axle. In addition, with the H-TRAC systems' Economy mode, up to 100 percent of available torque is distributed to the rear wheels for maximum driveline efficiency.
Hope this is helpful!
